This patch suspends all threads on SIGSTOP and resumes them on SIGCONT. 
The corresponding functions in the pthread class are already committed.

You can't suspend threads like this because SuspendThread can
hang in some situations, like when a thread is doing I/O.  That's why
there is a WaitForSingleObject here rather than just suspending the
thread.
Too bad.
